You can also use the laptop cleaning spray to clean your laptop.A laptop cleaning spray is designed so as it does not harm the laptop screen but cleans it thoroughly. This may be costly but if you compared it to what could happen if you ruin your screen just because of improper cleaning equipment then this would be a better deal.It is also non advisable to use eye glass lens cleaners, as they contains a chemical called “Isopropanol” an alcohol which is used as an industrial solvent.
